16. How will school prepare and support my child to transfer to secondary school?
We appreciate that the move to secondary school can be a daunting time for everyone and maybe even more so for a child with additional needs. We will support you and your child by:
- Providing a transition programme, if needed, in collaboration with the receiving school, child and parents / carers.
- Providing information about the needs of your child to their new school through face-to-face meetings, paperwork, emails etc.
- Organising additional visits to the school.
- Organising intervention work focusing on change / worries linked with transition – Emotional Literacy Support Assistant.
- Invite the SENCOs from the secondary schools to come to the last review meeting of Year 6.
